Sex, time apart or date nights - what's the key to a happy marriage?

It’s what every couple wants to know – the secret of a happy marriage – but it appears to very much depend on where you live.

Regular date nights are the key to keeping the flame burning with your husband or wife, according to the majority (51 per cent) of Londoners asked by researchers at VoucherCodesPro.co.uk

More than 2,500 married people from across the country were quizzed about their relationships and in the south east as a whole, the most important factor to keep a marriage going was revealed to be trust (58 per cent).

Here’s what the other regions thought were most important:

Wales – Regular sex (58 per cent)
